Edinburgh... was the best place to study medicine in the last century.
It was founded by doctors from Leiden, Netherlands, which was the best place to study medicine for the centuries before that and is now the best again.

It's just that the Durham part is in a remote campus (45min by bus to Durham) in a rather dull spot. Although that bar overlooking the river is pretty cool, but it isn't oxbridge-type.

It's not a med school; it's a teaching hospital.

Really wouldn't go anywhere else if I had the chance.

Jessaay!

I am a student there!

I'd say catered is better for meeting a mix of people. For example, people in self-catered halls have a tendancy to form friendships with mostly people from their floor and flat, whereas in catered you can form friendships with a variety of people and meet people who are also doing medicine etc. I know a few people are getting really impatient with the cooking thing as well now, it's a bit annoying having to buy and cook food every day I guess, whereas in catered halls you have it done for you!

On the down side, catered halls aren't that brilliant for fussy people (I'm quite easily satisfied with food so I'm fine with catered food), and if you miss meal time it feels a bit of a waste.

I love that though. We are abit like a family :h:

And yes clearly Imperial is the best.
We get firms in yr 2 = we win (I see no flaw whatsoever in this argument)

it's probably best not to...not until the clocks go forward in march 2010 at least...when there's actually light during the day.
(having said that, it hasn't stopped some naughty individuals though! :colone:
